Housewife Shares New Single ‘King of Wands’
Housewife, the project of Toronto-based indie-rock outfit Brighid Fry (she/they), share their brand new single, King of Wands, out now on Hazel Street Records.
What I like the most about this song is the confidence pouring from Housewife's lush vocals and how expressive they are, instantly capturing our attention to their relatable storytelling. Co-written with Gabe Simon (Lana Del Rey, Noah Kahan) and JT Foley (GAYLE, Maddy Hicks), King of Wands is a song about the patriarchal society and its effects on women, a message wrapped around a memorable production that incisively blends pop-flavored melodies with arena-ready rock instrumentation. Apart from the vocals I am particularly fond of the fuzzy, soaring guitars and edgy, confident atmosphere. Check it out below!
Speaking about the song, Housewife said,
'King of Wands' is a song about the Patriarchal attempts to diminish women’s confidence in their own intuition. Women’s intuition, spirituality, and solidarity are things that keep us safe and thriving – I wanted to write a song about reclaiming that.
